The Japanese woman or Japanese diet was developed by nutritionists at the YaELO Clinic (Yaeks). The principle of the technique is based on the consumption of low-calorie foods for 7-14 days. Before starting a strict diet, experts recommend mental training - the weight loss system requires strict adherence to all the rules of the method. This system of weight loss is characterized by prolonged exit: lasts 4 weeks. Despite its high effectiveness, the diet can be harmful to the body, especially if there are contraindications.
The principle of weight loss
The Japanese diet is designed for 7, 14 or 13 days. Proper weight loss is achieved through the use of foods high in protein. Fatty and carbohydrate foods are eliminated from the diet. The technique is considered "salt-free". The initial stage of weight loss is accompanied by the normalization of metabolic processes in the body, the elimination of toxins. The process of burning fat begins in 2-3 days.
It is impossible to deviate from the regime - the diet is strictly prescribed. Due to the lack of carbohydrates in the dishes, the duration of the diet should not exceed 14 days. Adverse reactions require immediate discontinuation of diet therapy and are a reason to seek medical attention. The use of vitamins and minerals during weight loss is stimulated, the complex is selected individually. Withdrawal from the diet can take up to a month.
Dietary rules
Containers made from approved products can fill you up quickly. This is due to the fact that they contain the main "building" component - protein. Carbohydrates and fats enter the body in small amounts. Fiber is found in fresh fruits and vegetables, and their use is not limited. Soluble dietary fiber promotes the normal functioning of the digestive system. The antioxidants involved in metabolism are found in green tea and natural coffee.

Types of Japanese diet
There are 3 types of Japanese diet. They differ in the number of days:
- 7 days;
- 13 days;
- 14 days.
Regardless of the type of equipment, it is necessary to follow a diet.
The diet is 14 days
The salt-free weight loss system is designed for 2 weeks. During this period, fat cells gradually divide and burn. During the first 3 days, the body is cleansed. During this period, experts recommend drinking plenty of fluids: boiled water and green tea accelerate the release of residual toxins. Conditionally, the diet can be divided into 2 stages, each of which lasts for 7 days. In the first stage, kefir is added to the menu. The dishes are steamed, frying and roasting are not taken into account.
7 days diet
The softest technique is designed for a week. During this period you can lose no more than 3-4 kilograms. The menu is strict, the products are limited and cannot be replaced. During weight loss, restructuring occurs, during which the body adapts to a new diet, so experts believe that this system is the least effective.

Receipt of food - 13 days at the same time. It is mandatory to follow all the rules of detox diet.

Conclusions and feedback

First review, female, 36 years old
I started recovering as a teenager and tried many diets - they didn’t help. I went to a nutritionist, underwent a medical examination, ate a separate meal, counted calories regularly, organized fasting days, and lost only 2 kilograms in 5 months. A friend advised me of the Japanese fat burning system, and I could not lose 7 kg in 2 weeks. I decided to give it a try.
The medical examination did not show any contraindications. The nutritionist gave detailed recommendations regarding the diet. The system does not require large material investments. At the doctor's suggestion, he painted the menu in detail and attached a sheet to the refrigerator. For the first 3 days I almost fell: the portions looked small, there was always a feeling of hunger. Day 4 was easy, I tried to chew for a long time and drink more fluids.
The second stage of weight loss quickly flew away. I cooked in the machine: I remembered the ingredients and the weight of the dishes. The food began to feel satisfactory, and the hunger was almost gone. On day 3, there were no side effects, except for a short-term headache. The nutritionist explained that this was due to a lack of sugar. I stopped the diet for 20 days. I enjoyed going out, so I avoided sweet, fatty, salty, and smoked foods altogether. I am satisfied with the result: I lost 10, 5 kg in 2 weeks. Six months later, I still use this weight loss system.
Second Review, Woman, 28
I learned about the technique 2 years ago. At that time, his weight was 107 kg, an increase of 164, which is very important. I had health problems, and I was not happy with my appearance. His friends could not advise on an effective diet, so he decided to consult a specialist. The doctor suggested trying to lose weight using the Japanese weight loss system. The long list of foods was scary at first, but the nutritionist explained the diet in detail.
Gained 5 kg in 7 days. The dishes on the menu are heartfelt and I ate a portion. At first, there was a slight dizziness and a slight disturbance of the intestines. The negative effects disappeared by themselves. He ate at the same time. The second stage of weight loss was easy: lightness, appearance and general well-being improved. As a result of my diet, I quit smoking and gave up alcohol altogether. 13 kg went during the release period. For 1, 5 years I have been eating properly, swimming and running, and my weight has not returned.
